 leads to boosting the economy.

 focus on another positive point. When

 have to move their living places because they have to work in a remote area from their present homes or they get involved in personal problems,
such
 as bullying or divorce, they can save much money if they rented a house.
People

 will be more suffered. In conclusion,
although
 there are some disadvantages to renting a home, the benefits of
this
 trend outweigh the disadvantages.
